Karaf which is based on Felix works for me but with a lot of strange traces in 
the log.

As per ASM team, ASM 5 will be released when Java8 would be. However, ASM 5 
beta is ok ready to be used.

I don't have any trouble with the Maven scr plugin, but the Eclipse plugin does 
not support new Java8 syntax. Neither Checkstyle.

Eclipse itself partly supports Java8 but with a patch. I experienced strange 
behaviors, but, it works.

Note that Java8 itself does also contain bugs, especially in JavaFX.

Objet : OSGi and JDK8 Status?


Hey there,

Has anyone tracked what the status of Felix/OSGi is under JDK8 (targetted 
bytecode) etc. is yet?

So far AFAIK:

 *   maven-scr-plugin broken due to ASM 5 not being released, so doesn't 
support new bytecode
 *   maven-bundle-plugin broken due to BND also not supporting JDK8 bytecode, 
or source code

Any one know if Pax-CDI works? iPojo?

Felix/Karaf itself all seems to work fine running UNDER JDK8 once I added the 
jre exports tho.

Has anyone built up -SNAPSHOTS of the above two plugins with SNAPSHOTS of 
dependencies to get something working so that once JDK8 is officially released 
( or better, once the RC is released ) that broader testing of OSGi based apps 
can go forth.

Mark
